An original mix of alternative, rock and Latin grooves, with a punk edge. High energy performances with lots of onstage movement.The band's shows are charged with great energy and lead singer Lissette dances to their tunes creating a fun and different performance experience.
During 2010 Neon Venus has been playing regular shows at rock venues and at both of their own performances spaces, the Neon Venus Art Theatres, located in Hollywood and Las Vegas.
Lisa Walz, a Las Vegas booker for the Gold Mine Tavern says:
"The pleasure of having Neon Venus perform was all mine. The show was rocking. Thank you for the show. Once the outdoor stage is built for the Gold Mine, I would love to have you back for a show. I will keep you updated on that. If you have any shows coming up, please let me know so I am able to list them on Stardust Fallout. I would love to help spread the word about your incredible band."
Neon Venus are rock entrepreneurs, underground survivors in a music scene where acts have disappeared due to a supposedly dying industry. Neon Venus has grown stronger every year since their inception in 1997, mostly due to smart online promotions and a passion for live performance. They have also promoted shows with other popular bands at their venues, sharing the space to create a scene. Pictures of Neon Venus shows can be seen on their Facebook page (add /Neon Venus), videos can be seen on YouTube/neonvenusmusic. The Las Vegas Weekly says: "At the Neon Venus, art is life and life is a party." Both venues are an outlet for Neon Venus' music and shows, and for the artistic expression of fellow artists.
- In 2007, two songs from their latest CD "Irresistible" were pre-nominated for the 49th Annual Grammys in two categories: "Best Record of the Year" and "Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal".
- In 2006, MTV Español (USA) aired Neon Venus' latest video for their song "Irresistible". - Three other Neon Venus music videos (Beso a Beso, Step Into My Island, and Volveremos) have aired on MTV Español, VHUno (Latin VH1- USA) and/or MTV Puerto Rico. "Beso a Beso" first aired on MTV Español in 2003.
- In 2005, MTV Español aired Neon Venus' self-directed rockumentary based on their tour of Europe, which included cities in Spain, Italy, Turkey, Egypt and the Sinai.
- Many tracks from their records have received college and internet airplay in the US, as well as on commercial stations and shows like Rodney on the Rock, on KROQ 106.7 FM in Los Angeles.
- So far, Neon Venus' original songs have been on many compilations including one to benefit tsunami victims and many compilations for top Latin rock magazine "Boom!".
- Neon Venus has released three CDs: "Irresistible" (2006) a bilingual double CD, with one disc containing songs mostly in English, and the other with songs mostly in Spanish, and two previous CDs, "Slip Into Rhythm/Cae En El Ritmo" (2002) and "The Birth of Neon Venus" (1999).
Neon Venus has been videotaping their performances and the activity at their theatre for a new documentary.
In 2009 Las Vegas Weekly had this to say about Neon Venus:
"Neon Venus pushes local artists to take the reins of their creativity and produce their work. Through their space, classes and partnerships with established artists, Valentino and Napoleoni are trying to create a fertile performance-and art based scene."
-Neon Venus members are: Lissette Napoleoni---Puerto Rican born and raised lead
singer, and Peter Valentino---lead guitar, and Michael Oberlander (bass).
